Children with greater self-control become independent teenagers with intrinsic motivation, capable of coping with difficulties and failures. If you want your kids to develop better self control, here are some tips to help them recognize their emotions, some relaxation techniques, and techniques to help control anger. To help with techniques to control thoughts, we did a podcast episode on negative thinking and how to overcome that on episode 20 and also an episode on helping anxious children which was episode 29.

Here are the links to the websites we referred to throughout the episode. https://psychology-spot.com/self-control-activities-for-children/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSRmdzofkio http://www.pbs.org/parents/expert-tips-advice/2016/05/three-strategies-teaching-children-self-control/
